Claddagh Irish Pub is part of the new trend towards churning out
faux-authentic Irish pubs in the US. Not that it's a bad thing,
mind you, but every one seems the same, but different.
<br>
The good thing about the pub craze is that it ensures beer lovers
of finding good beer to drink. They usually fail at the kitchen
end of the house, but Claddagh is solid and delivers adequately,
if not spectacularly.
<br>
You can't go wrong with the ubiquitous Fish and Chips. The
chips are as they should be, long, fresh cut potato wedges deep
fried to golden perfection. The fish is cod dipped in a Bass Ale
batter and is not very greasy. Unless you're extremely hungry,
you're better off sticking with the half portion, which
still offers plenty of food.
<br>
They also do a good job with Shepherd's Pie, Corned Beef and
Cabbage, and the Irish Beef and Guinness Stew.
<br>
The one thing that annoys me with these places is that they try
to cook everything using the beers as the ingredients. Just cook
the damn food, and we'll drink the beers.
<br>
Hoist a cold pint (this is the US, we don't drink our beer warm
over here) and salute Claddagh for doing things right.
